assalamualaikum i was really looking forward to watching X-Files premier in Geneva last night at the hyped up OrangeCinema which was located smack right near the lake. it was absolutely beautiful. i mean, clear sky (for a while), watching the sun setting as we wait for the movie to start n d cool breeze of night. the cinema was jammed packed with avid X-Files fan, each n everyone bringing either jackets, towels, pillow, chips, drinks... just to get comfy while watching the movie. i was there early. too early. i came in around 8pm just so that i could get good seats. i really did... since there wasn't anyone around. i was frankly surprised for a moment thinking that not many people really like paranormal movies. then as i was checking out my ticket, i realised the movie was gonna play around 930pm... boy was i baffled. i mistakenly took 2130hrs to be 830hrs. i can be really foreign when it comes to numbers. argh... but no worries. there was food n the view was absolutely beautiful a

assalamualaikum based on my experience of living in a small apartment (furnished) for the past half a year of 2008, if there's one thing that i dont like, its about not being able to add anything in it. one, its small so basically u can't fill in too much items which r bulky or big. two, its furnished so u can't put out the items that are already in it (plus its OLD). and three, the most necessary of all, the lack of money. the third being my biggest problem of all. as we usually are at the end of the month, we keep checking our banks hoping that the numbers increase from the neutral $0.00 we always have by the middle of the month. quite funny but its done by everyone who r working. regardless of who u r. so, things that make me try to tie my wallet with a barbed wire this month... lets see... there's cool movies coming up this month in theaters around geneva (premiers can be late here sometimes... tomorrow is X-Files n the next few weeks will be the Dark Knight... n we

assalamualaikum god almighty... how am i supposed to ignore such a thing? its here for pete's sake! it's everywhere. it's offering irresistible offers which no one in the right mind would resist! it's just feels so close of holding it n i could just cuddle it in my clumsy hands... why? why? why is technology so good these days? well... not al of em. but then again, WHY??? look at it. aren't u attracted to it? so slick n sexy. so arrogant yet suttle. i've read lots of reviews on it. most love it, n some are just disgusted by it. one thing that is true, that its just something to showoff. to me, being a non-businessman myself, wouldnt know what to do with it. another fact is, when i bring it back to Brunei, would it work as properly as it works here? i dunno... but still, i wana get my hands on it. but then again, i tend to turn away from it. obvious reason is that i dont have a luxury of cash at the moment. given a bit more time, maybe. but should i or shouldnt i

assalamualaikum, for more on Zermatt, pls visit http://www.zermatt.ch/index.e.html from there, u can find out more stuff on the beautiful place. hahahha... short intro on it eh? ok, that is official information on it. so now its my turn to give my point of view during my short visit there. its such a beautiful n peaceful place. like i said (i think i mentioned it) its a perfect place for those who wants to get away from city life. no cars here except for the mini-bus taxis n a few horse carriages. the rest, uses d original means of transport, walking. getting there, i went there using a train from Geneva to Visp, then changed to another train for d journey to Zermatt. all n all it took around 2.5-3 hours. not a bad trip. bring along any books, ur Ipod... some food if u like... just to kill the time of d journey. but for those who like d scenery, its a good option to look out the windows. its very nice. especially when u get to d part where u can see the lake. Zermatt: its not such a bi
